After a few attempts it crashes.Sometimes it will stay at the login screen while I try to guess the password (using the previous owners hint) without crashing, other times it crashes. I used the option to change the password (see video for option list) and deleted the password leaving the new password blank but when I rebooted the password was still active not letting me log in. Frustrating..... :\ [/QUOTE]
